PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Power-Up your classroom with BYTES Power Smarts! In this 12th story of the BYTES Power Smarts series, 8-Bit BYTE and his pals use their Power Smarts (multiple intelligences) and the Jane Goodall Institute's Roots & Shoots formula to help restore the ecosystem in the Land of Toey-Toes so Lyin BYTE can return to his natural habitat. Each story also comes with discussion questions that could be used for written responses. This story can be used to address Common Core Reading, Language, Writing, and Speaking and Listening Standards.

BYTES Power Smarts stories are FREE and designed for elementary age children to help them learn about their multiple intelligences (Power Smarts®). By using their Power Smarts, students will improve their strengths and talents, thus building self-esteem and confidence. Power Smarts are based on the multiple intelligences identified by Harvard research psychologist Howard Gardner. BYTES Power Smarts stories use complex text and advanced vocabulary, encourage creative and critical thinking, and can be used to address Common Core Standards. Older children, parents, and grandparents will enjoy BYTES Power Smarts stories, and they can be read to younger children too! Each story comes with optional discussion questions to spark interesting conversations with family and friends while developing face-to-face conversational skills.

BYTES Power Smarts uses original art for its instructional materials. We think your students will enjoy our unique characters.

The BYTES Power Smarts stories can be read online or printed in color or grayscale although we recommend the use of color to interest students and keep them focused. Every printer is different, so we suggest adjusting your printer settings to:
Page Size: Actual Size; Orientation: Auto Portrait/Landscape; Page Set Up: Borderless 8.5 X 11"; Scale: 100%. To save ink, try one page to be sure it prints the borders before printing the entire story as you might have to make printer setting adjustments
